As you know, Thursday night’s storm caused significant tree damage and power outages throughout our community. We are working to assist you! Kalamazoo Township leadership is actively monitoring the situation and working with local partners to ensure that cleanup and power restoration efforts continue safely and efficiently.  Response coordination is in place now, and we are prepared to take further action to assist our community with cleanup efforts. Our Board is meeting this week to discuss authorizing additional support services.

 

We encourage residents to:

>Report downed trees or blocked roads to the Road Commission of Kalamazoo https://www.kalamazoocountyroads.com/contact.php

>Contact your utility provider directly for power outage updates

>Check on neighbors, especially those who are elderly or medically vulnerable

 >Stay clear of any downed power lines and call 911 if you see a hazardous situation

 

We are grateful to our fire, police, facilities, maintenance personnel, and our community for their continued efforts.

 

Thank you for your patience and care for one another as we recover from this storm. We will continue to update our social media, website, and mobile app.
